Siiir The Republican Convention did a
grand thing when it passed a resolution
endorsing Gen. Grant, and especiAlly in
expressing the preference of the Republi
can party of rannvivania for his renom
ination. Of course we do out ciurtstion the
right of uninstructel delegates to a Con
vention to vote and speak their own con_
victions, but we think it is due to . the
people of this Senatorial district to say that
the delegates in the Convention did not
represent the true sentiments of the dis
trict in making opposition to the endorse
ment of Gen. Grant as the present trusted
leader of the Republican party, and the
man to whom the people look as their
proper standard-bearer in 1872. Never
was a President more confided in by the
people; never did a ruler more deserve
that confidence.
THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEES,
The severe pressure upon our columns
'last week, so abridged our space that we
were unable to say more than a mere wore
upon the result of the State Convention.
We propose now to give our readers a brief
account of the men who have been chosen
as the standard bearers of the Republican
party in the approaching canvass. We
are indebted to the Harrisburg Telegraph
for the facts here submitted :
EDITOR
DR. DAVID STANTON,
nominated for Auditor General, is at pros_
ent a resident of New Brighton, Beaver
county, and is a son of the late Dr. Benja
min Stanton, of Ohio. He was born in
1859, and when twenty-one years of age
removed to his present place of residence
and commenced the practice of medicine,
a profession he is still actieely and profita
bly engaged in, his evidence of merit and
qualifications being apparent in diplomas]
from the Cleveland Medical College and
the University of Pennsylvania. In An-
gust 1861, he entered the service of his
country as surgeon of the First Pennsyl
vania. Cavalry; and was connected with the
Army of the Potomac until promoted to
the post of surgeon U. S. V., in November
1862, from which date until he resigned,
in December, 1865, he acted as Superin
tendent of Hospitals, and as assistant and
acting Medical director of the Northern
Department, on the staffs of Generals
Heintzelman and Hooker. In 1864 he
was breveted_ lieutenant colonel, and' in
1865 was wade brevet colonel. The Doc
tor is of Quaker descent, was an old-time
Abolitionist, and is a near relative of the
lamented Secretary of War Stanton, to
whom he has a strong personal resemblance.
Mr. S. is peculiarly fitted for the im
portant position to which the Republicans
of this State have assigned him as their
standard bearer.
COL. ROBERT B. BEATH,
who was nominated as the Republican
candidate for Surveyor General, was born
in the city of Philadelphia, January 26,
1839, of Scotch parentage. He served an
apprenticeship with Merrick &, Sons, at
their Southwark foundry. At the outset
of the war he enlisted from there as a pri
vate, April 20, 1861, serving during the
three months' service in company G,
Twenty-third Pennsylvania, and was mus
tered out as sergeant. On September 5,
1861, he was mustered in as sergeant of
Company D, Eighty-eighth regiment Penn
sylvania volunteers, serving as such until
promoted to second lieutenant, dating De
cember 18, 1862. Hewas wounded in the
foot at the second Bull Run battle, in which
he participated. In August, 1863, he was
promoted to be captain of Company A,
Sixth regiment United States colored
troops, serving with this company and reg
meat in all its marches and engagements
in front of Petersburg and on the James
rivet.
In tha charge on the rebel works at New
Market (better known as Chapin's farm),
September 29, 1864, he was again wound
ed in the foot, resulting in the amputation
of the right leg below tJle knee, When
able to leave the hospital he was assigned
to duty at Camp William Penn,near Phil
adelphia, returning to his regiment in Au
gust, 1865. He was then placed in charge
of the &unties of Brunswich and Hano
ver, Freedman's Bureau, forming the sub
district of Wilmington, and remained in
this position until mustered out with the
regiMent, September 20, 1865, when he
received a commission as lieutenant col°.
nel.
Mr. Beath is at present engaged as book
keeper in one of the largest coal collieries
in Schuylkill county, and is especially fit
ted fop the impoytant post of Surveyor
General, to which his Republican friends
will elevate him on the second Tuesday of
October next..

TOM SCOTT AND THE PERNSYLVANIA
CENTRAL—The Chicago Tribune hardly
knows whether toapplaudor cry. It says: I
"The 'Pennslvania Central Railway has be
come the gallant among railways, and Tom
Scott is a railway king, head and shoulders
taller than all his rivals. What with build
ing new lines, and purchasing and leasing
lines already built, the present company
now controls not less than 4.000 miles of
track. Scott and his partners orring own
or control a line of railroad extending
L.orn Philadelphia via Pittsburg, Chicago,
Rock Island and Omaha toSalt Lake City,
and also the Kansas Pacific Railway. They
control a road from Philadelphia to Erie,
another line from Pittsburg to Cincinnati,
Chicago and St. Louis, and a line from
Indianapolis to Cairo, and they are negoti
ating for the Cairo and Fulton. road, ,if
they have not already got it. They are
also builing a road from Fort Wayne to
Grand Rapids, Michigan. And now they
have swallowed the Camden, Amboy and all
the other roads in Northern New Jersey.
We shall probably hear next that Tom
Scott has bought all the roads in America,

PRIVATE RESIDENCE FOR SALE.
Having gone into business at this place I
proliose to sell my private residence at Bedford,
Pennsylvania, at private sale.
It is unnecessary for me to give a description of
it to those who are acquainted with it, and to those
who have not seen it, and who desire to purchase
a neat and complete residence I would say go and
examine it. The house was entirely overhauled
and renovated but a year or two ago, It is located
upon a full lot of ground, GO feet by 240, on East
Pitt street, and thecorner of an alley loading to
the Steam Mill, which makes it one of the most
public places in the town in a business point of
view. The lot is under drained by numerous
drains, and is second to none in the place. It has
produced all the garden vegetables used by my
family for years. Is addition there is a flower
garden and a considerable quantity of excellent
fruit. There is a perpetual insurance upon the
house.
Address me at Huntingdon or Bedford, Pa.
